After international success, Woods returned to America in 2002.

Independently, Woods worked extensively with the producers Rich Harrison, Chink Santana and Ski. 102 Jamz, the local radio station in Greensboro, North Carolina, picked up his single "Maybelline Lady", which attracted the attention of the Grammy Award-winning producer 9th Wonder, who signed Tyler to his Jamla Records label in 2008.

Shortly after graduating in 1999, Tyler left North Carolina for a European tour with the R&B quartet N-Trigue.
